BREAKING: BANGLADESH PRESENT THEIR CASE TO THE ICJ AGAINST ISRAELI WAR CRIMES AND ILLEGAL OCCUPATION

BREAKING: NETHERLANDS ARE PRESENTING THEIR CASE TO THE ICJ ABOUT ISRAELI CRIMES

SAUDI ARABIA OFFICIAL STATEMENT

Saudi Ambassador Ziyad bin Maashi Al-Attiyah

“We affirm our position that if this court refrains from hearing this case, this means that the system that protects states will lose its credibility.

“Israel” continues to implement its notorious settlement policies despite the decisions of the Court and the UN Security Council

“Israel” has no intention of reaching a negotiation process

It is frustrating what is coming out of the Israeli leaders with their intentions regarding ethnic cleansing and forced displacement.
We affirm our position that if this court refrains from hearing this case, this means that the system that protects states will lose its credibility.

“Israel” continues to implement its notorious settlement policies despite the decisions of the Court and the UN Security Council

Israel's insistence on Jerusalem as its unified capital contradicts the Palestinians' right to self-determination and the establishment of their independent state.

Saudi Arabia emphasizes that violating international law leads to violating people’s dignity and depriving them of their rights

We ask the court to issue a ruling that the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal.”

SAUDI ARABIA SPEAK ABOUT ISRAEL’S WAR CRIMES AND ILLEGAL OCCUPATION

“Israel defends its brutality as a price for defeating Hamas. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia firmly rejects this logic.

Israel's actions in laying waste to the Gaza Strip, killing and mining dozens of thousands of innocent civilians, depriving them of water, food, and the basic means of survival, while displacing the entire population are not justified under any circumstances.”

BREAKING: ALGERIA LEGAL TEAM SPEAK AT THE ICJ ON ISRAELI WAR CRIMES

“Israel's goal is to reach a situation where it is impossible to establish a Palestinian state.”

“The Palestinian situation is a striking illustration of the violent contrast that exists between theoretical appearances and reality.”

BREAKING: SOUTH AFRICAN REPRESENTATIVE TO THE ICJ ON ISRAEL’S CRIMES

“All settlements must be dismantled and the two-state solution implemented.”

“Israel is seriously violating international law and must be put to an end.”

“The Israeli violence and attacks on Gaza are contrary to international law

The Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip are more horrific than the apartheid regime

The Palestinian people must be allowed to exercise their right to self-determination

What Israel is doing exacerbates the situation of the Palestinians and makes them worse

The Palestinians in Gaza live in an isolated and disunited area and are subjected to a siege by Israeli forces.

The aggression on the Gaza Strip violates the rights to life, and Israel must be held accountable for its actions

Israel committed the greatest crime against the Palestinian people, which is genocide

The Palestinians are subjected to illegal detention called administrative detention

The international community as a whole must develop mechanisms to respect the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people

Israel's acquisition of Palestinian lands by force is illegal and constitutes aggression

We call for the withdrawal of the Israeli army from the occupied Palestinian territories because it violates international law

The measures taken by Israel hinder the right of the Palestinians to self-determination

Israel must abide by international laws, especially humanitarian laws, in the occupied Palestinian territories

Israel's continued construction of settlements on the occupied Palestinian territories is a violation of the Geneva Convention.”

The International Court of Justice will assess the legality of Israel's military governance in the West Bank and Gaza. Beginning February 19, representatives from 52 countries will present their arguments over one week to the judges of the UN's top court.

The judges of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) are preparing to examine the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at hearings to be held at the Peace Palace in The Hague from February 19 to 26. These debates are not linked to the request by South Africa, which, at the end of December 2023, accused Israel of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The hearings that will open on Monday were launched a year earlier, in December 2022. At that time, the UN General Assembly had asked the UN's highest court to issue a legal opinion on Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories.

According to the resolution adopted at the end of 2022 by 87 States, with 53 abstentions and 26 votes against, the judges are called upon to ascertain "the legal consequences of Israel's violation of the Palestinians' right to self-determination, its occupation, colonization and prolonged annexation of Palestinian territory since 1967." In other words, the judges are to rule on the legality of Israel's occupation.

The issue is not new. The Israel-imposed regime in the West Bank and Gaza Strip dates back more than half a century. Several reports by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights have deemed the occupation illegal "due to its permanence and the Israeli government's de facto annexation policies." No judge, however, has so far confirmed this. Although the ICJ's legal opinions are not binding, they do carry considerable political weight, as legal experts like to point out.

The United Nations reports:

- Palestinian women and girls detained by Israeli forces "been subjected to multiple forms of sexual assault"

- "At least two female Palestinian detainees were reportedly raped".

These are a few of the cases brought and verified by the United Nations several others still on verification process.


GENEVA (19 February 2024) – UN experts* today expressed alarm over credible allegations of egregious human rights violations to which Palestinian women and girls continue to be subjected in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

Palestinian women and girls have reportedly been arbitrarily executed in Gaza, often together with family members, including their children, according to information received. “We are shocked by reports of the deliberate targeting and extrajudicial killing of Palestinian women and children in places where they sought refuge, or while fleeing. Some of them were reportedly holding white pieces of cloth when they were killed by the Israeli army or affiliated forces,” the experts said.

The experts expressed serious concern about the arbitrary detention of hundreds of Palestinian women and girls, including human rights defenders, journalists and humanitarian workers, in Gaza and the West Bank since 7 October. Many have reportedly been subjected to inhuman and degrading treatment, denied menstruation pads, food and medicine, and severely beaten. On at least one occasion, Palestinian women detained in Gaza were allegedly kept in a cage in the rain and cold, without food.

“We are particularly distressed by reports that Palestinian women and girls in detention have also been subjected to multiple forms of sexual assault, such as being stripped naked and searched by male Israeli army officers. At least two female Palestinian detainees were reportedly raped while others were reportedly threatened with rape and sexual violence,” the experts said. They also noted that photos of female detainees in degrading circumstances were also reportedly taken by the Israeli army and uploaded online.

Leo588:
Lets call a spade by its name. The Isrealite wont just target the innocent citizens if the terrorist are not using them as cover. The terrorist's act should be condemned and stopped but the terrorist sympathizers thinks otherwise. The best defense is to attack

The term terrorist is being abused here, if you can't distinct the difference then you have a long way to go..

Nelson Mandela was termed a terrorist before defeating apartheid let that sink in.

43Ronin:
Ok are you saying the entire land of Israel belonged to the Palestines? So who were the Palestine and how come they were never recorded historically as being the true dwellers of Israel? At least it's on record the caananites lived there before the jews conquered and settled there. So when did d Palestine begin to occupy Israel cos from records its after the christains lost the crusades to the Muslims that the land of Israel were occupied by eventual Palestinians. The caananites are/were not Palestinians

Are you quoting the bible? If not please lay down facts to check and confirm what you saying and don't bring wikipedia here..

It's a corrupt organization that edits pages every seconds to soot it's agenda

pquaver:
Last i remember isreal was on their own and the arabs brought war to their doorstep in the Arab war lead by Egypt ... So what or where exactly do you want us to start?

War doesn't start without intent, no war does..
The USA and UK funding ISREAL is the major reason of ISREAL audacity the the east...

43Ronin:
So by your analogy it's ok for ESN to now enter lagos or Abuja and shoot up people in shoprite, kill police and army and still take nigerians as hostages since they have been oppressed by Nigerian army since 1967? It's hypocrisy to wish the best for foreigners(Palestinians) while wishing the worst for your African brothers(igbo). Mind you hamas is a government in Gaza, they were duly voted for and elected in a free & fair election. So what's happening is war between two nations, one must surrender or be annihilated

The term annihilation is a genocidal call, there's no annihilation during and after war.. stop acting like you not human

Lagos was not stolen from the Igbos, there is a huge difference they have no claim to it..

It would be different is your analogy makes sense, but if course it isn't applicable here

43Ronin:
Israel says that the war would end if Hamas were to release the Israeli hostages it took during its October 7 onslaught, and surrender.
Why can't you people advice hamas to do such? Why can't the hamas president surrender himself to ICJ & tell his people to surrender for now? Why fùcking Arabian bitches & enjoy shisha in Iran while his people are being killed? His cowardice reeks like that of a particular tribe in naija

ISREAL prime minister open reject releasing hostages, you must have no idea what I'd going on in the world. Yucks

"The Jewish state’s war with Hamas broke out on October 7, when the organization’s terrorists launched an unprecedented attack on Israel’s south, murdering some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 253 amid acts of brutality including sexual violence.'
It would be naive for foreign ministers, ambassadors, international instutute of policy and strategies, and government to say they are surprise that Israel is taking it this far quite on the contrary even layperson interested in international politics know that this would happen therefore, enough of the hypocrisy.

There are no proofs of 1200 murdered, if there is please lay it down for all to see..

Who counted? , WHO, UN or what organization supervised it?

ISREAL wanted a war, how could one of the most defensive and protected border loose all security details overnight when there is no coup in the country?

Think before you believe, and study also to understand every reasons. Hamas are no SAINTS but I rather have a resistance to ISREAL right now..

All proofs and checked facts both by UN and ISREAL citizens were that Israel pulled details, let Hamas in, Hamas kidnapped people, ISREAL chased after Hamas bombing them thereby killing a lot of ISREAL...

That's the only fact confirmed by UN.

Tetrahedron:
And which demons were those that killed people on Oct 7

1. Those people attack on oct 7 crisis where settlers in Gaza strip..

Settlers, a person who moves with a group of others to live in a new country or area.

They had no right to be there, it wasn't their land so why the hell where they stealing?

2. There's no proof as to whatever that hamas massacred civilians population during the raid.

3. There are over 40,000 Palestines civilians in detention in ISREAL, why ? What reason? , What crimes?



Every point states that hamas are resistance group, if Gaza lands where not stolen and given to settlers there wouldn't have been oct 7..

Not withstanding no proof as to whatever that there were mass killings in the settler population, only propagandas like beheaded babies, mass rape which cnn and other media has debunked as false..

Going through the comments i feel like I shouldn't be born into this country..

Nigerians are hypocrites and will do anything to worship the west, I'm sure if slave trade still go on.. all these Nigerians on NL would sell their parents off to the west..

Israel granted exploration rights to 3 companies - Italian energy giant Eni, UK based Dana Energy & Israel's Ratio Petroleum.

Over half of the area the companies are awarded licences for lies within Palestine's maritime boundaries.

Rights groups say exploration licences handed to companies in first weeks of war encroach on Palestinian waters and may amount to the war crime of pillaging

MadamExcellency:
How 14 million people worldwide are a threat to Islam of 2 billion people is a field of study to be studied at the University.

How is it possible for 4 armed men to take over a bank full of tens of people for hours?

Study and show your working, that should be your answer.

Weaponized Double Standards (see headline below):

1⃣ Acting as a monolith
2⃣ Boycott an entire country
3⃣ Mass demonstrations
4⃣ Wage economic & financial warfare

Picture (1) shows the paper dating far back as 1933 to show the pressure of Zionist agents on Germany which was one of the reason for the WW.

Picture (2) shows Zionist agencies, corporations and business united to bring down any country, business, tribe, state, and ideology that's against the Genocide of thousands of people.

They using same strategy today just like before, see picture(3).

This same strategy was used to pressurize the now richest man in the world ELON MUSK.

smokinloud:
Zionism is an ideology. Whoever believe the Jews deserve to be on their indigenous land is a Zionist.
Jews are a people, the descendants of Abraham

I'm a Zionist and you're an anti-Zionist

I rest my case!!! We finally reach an agreement that you are a genocidal apologist and inhumane human. Hitler would be PROUD!!!

smokinloud:
Go for evening lesson. WAEC is approaching

Please school me professor, what's the difference between Zionist and Jews?

Who are Zionist and who are Jews?

smokinloud:
How old are you?!.

Old enough to distinguish between crime, hate and peace..

Non-religious and non biased arguments is all I have put down since my initial quote..

ZIONISM is a far right group of Jewish people who consider themselves greater humans.. the Zionist was involved in WW2 as authoritarians who wish to control government and financial sectors.

They lost their cause, cried to USA/BRITAIN AND RUSSIA TO HELP THEM..

moved to the USA and continued their ideology of controlling financial and govt sector just as they did during WW2..

Jews are peaceful people just like the arabs while Zionist are far right just like the ISIS and other Islamic far right group..

If as a human you can't distinguish between good, evil and peace then you are nothing short of a MONSTER..

I believe if you were born during the period of WW2, you would have cheered for the slaughter and maiming of innocent JEWS just like you are today against the PALESTINES...

Have you drank camel urine this afternoon?!.
Which of my write up signify that the Jewish claim to the land is because a group of Jewish people lived on the land some 2000 years ago?!. Point it out. Go school, you go talk say school na scam. Now to comprehend simple sentence you no fit. "Oderh omo"!.
Jewish community have been present on the land continuously for more than 3,600 years and Arab history on the land only began with the Ottoman. As tenant
UN would not even debate about the partition if there were not continuous Jewish community on the land

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_history_of_Palestine_(region)

Applying your failed logic, the USA has no right to exist, the UK should not even be talked about..

Hitler was right to demand German lands back from polish.

Your argument is not just a call for GENOCIDE but DEMONIC in all seriousness..

Does that mean they have the right to kick out and kill people living legitimately in their hometown because 4000 years ago they once lived there?

Comprehension is not far fetched don't you think?

In same sense the every city should go back to footprint dating million years ago Maybe the dinosaur would be the owner of the house your PAPA AND MAMA DEY STAY.

smokinloud:
CALM YOUR NERVE, 77% of the land of Palestine was given to King Abdullah, an Hashemite ( descendant of prophet Muhammad from Quraysh Saudi Arabia),to rule as independent state by Britain in 1946. The Arabs were pleased with that and they were even willingly enslaved to him. Now, 20% of the remaining 23% of the land was given to Israel(the real owners of the land) and the Arabs are to take over 70% and Jerusalem be administered by the UN. You know what the entire Arab league did?!. THEY DECLARED WAR ON ISRAEL which they lost woefully and to every war there is consequences. If Arabs had won they'd have killed all the Jews but Israel won and chased the local Arabs that supported the Arab league by not allowing them back in their country but the Arab that didn't listen to the call of Arab league to all local Arabs to vacate the land before the war became legal citizens with equal rights. Na so war be my brother, if you want to fight war get ready to lose many things. The devilish acts of the Arabs is that nobody is fighting Jordan for taking 77% of the land but that 3% of the original land that the Jews initially took is what they want to wipe out Israel for.
Another factor is that the Jews bought the land with their own money and became land owners while the local Arabs were just tenants on the land, there was Ottoman laws backing their tenancy!. So, the land was never the Arab's at any time. Get your history right

watch this short debate. 30 seconds with Aljazeera journalist

https://youtube.com/shorts/mtg1k3QDvvk?si=iBk4yO2js8jAQzCY

In the same sense RUSSIA WAR IS JUSTIFIED?

Because a group of people once lived there thousands years ago?

France, Britain and Spanish, danish, polish, cities should also be returned to original ancestors..

USA should be returned to the original ancestors also because..

You just justified every war both world war 1 and 2 with your myopic reasoning...

Judolisco:
me and my family will never go and attack, kill abduct, and rape innocent citizens of a country...

May you and your family be chased out of your given home, your home usurped, may your family look through a fenced wire while their wealth is given to a complete stranger only to look upon while they willow on adject poverty and human rights restricted!!

May your family be arrested just for being born into the home they had no choice to and imprisoned without trial, may your family stay in jail for no reason for 90 days without trial while the rest of the world are given bail or court trial in less than 48 hours as per their human rights.

and when your descendants fight back, may they be declared inhumane, terrorist and lower human.

May they be shot at, bombed, displaced and paraded everywhere naked and tied like animals.. may the whole world laugh while you, your family and descendants are suffering and applaud your genocidal masters as God given children IJN...

Judolisco:
if Israel doesn't have an anti - missile system u won't be saying dis..... Hamas should stop using children as shields.... Dis format Don cast since... When they invaded isreal u were part of the people jubilating right

Funny people on this app, someday you and your family will be on the other end receiving genocidal Attack IJN

Botragelad:
You have to hand it to Israel when it comes to intelligence. They've been able to infiltrate Hamas and weaken their power.

Israel carried out some airstrike on Hamas position in rafah even when Egypt said it would cause some tension. Most people were against operation in rafah because of the civilians there. No surprise, it's just another terrorist nest. And look how they rescued these hostages.

This is a lesson to all Israel bashers. Your views and moaning don't matter. Israel will do whatever it takes to defend itself from Invaders. All Hamas members will be wiped out to the last man. Enjoy the show!`

I would have said you are senseless and myopic but that would be a compliment for someone like you.

Nonsense story - you fit afford am?
